Hi Guys,
Not sure if I post in the right place, please apologize because this is my first post and the lack of my knowledge..
Right now, I am in the process of starting my sound rental business and dealing with NEXO seller close to my area. With my budget right now, the only NEXO system I can afford are 12 units of Geo S12 speakers and 4 units of RS18 sub. The seller told me the ideal system for me to buy is 10 of S1210 and 2 of S1230, so that I can have one set of vertical array (5 S1210 and 1 S1230 per side) to get enough coverage on most of my events. But then some questions came up on my mind : Is buying 10 S1210 and 2 S1230 the right decision? (because I heard that some people prefer to have more S1230 for indoor events) Is vertical array really the ideal setup for my events? (since most of them are indoor event with height around 5 to 8.5 meters) How about horizontal array? or maybe another setup? if that's the case, should I add more S1230 and reduce the S1210?
Any NEXO rep or expert users willing to help me with this? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks
Below are pictures of some venue in my area, most of them are used for wedding, small-gig concert and special events like seminar, gathering, etc.
Cheers,

I read through most of the posts here
If you are using the S12 boxes in line array format you will almost never "need" more than 1 * S1230 per hang
If you are putting speakers on sticks or wanting fills some additional S1230 may come in handy
I have not heard or used the LS18 yet
However I love the RS18 and love it
The rig you listed is a good size and should fit well together
Passive vs biamp
Our event rigs are now all biamp
We found that when pushing the rig to the limits this helped a ton
Passive still sounds good and can work just fine. If you can spend the extra dollars on biamping - do it
The S12 is a great sounding box at an amazing price point
We recently bought a Nexo STM rig and deployed it for the first time this week - that was fun
